Horses Cleaned by Steam.

In the basement or ground floor of the
Palmer House livery stables two en-
ployes stood on either side of large,
powerfully built horse which was I'M
dcrgoing his daily toilet-in stable par
lance, "gitt;n' cleaned and curried." In
exactly forty. seconds the animal was
turned over to his keeper as bright as a
new pin-not a spsc.s of dirt nor a
turned hair to be seen on his sleek. shiny
coat. His step seemed brisker, and he
acted much like person who has had an
invigorating bath. In two hour time
no less than 100 horses, big and little,
had received their daily cleanup, and
were ready TO prance out into society.
The cause of this revolution in the art
of horse cleaning, rubbing down and
currying-all in one-is a simple con-
triyance, a movable shaft, at one end of
which is a circular brush composed of
fairly stiff bristles. The brush, which is
run by steam, revolves many hundred
times minute, and is guided by the
cleaner Two of these cleaners, operat-
ing with the brushes on one animal, can
accomplish more in a minute than can
four men with the old style brush and
curry comb in twenty minute. = Chicago

The essential requisites of long dis

ready means of supplying these muscles
with an Increased amount of oxygen

the carbonic aid that results from the
